Actual Student Experience 

Christ University with its nurturing and holistic potential has received several beaming reviews.

• I can’t believe how far I have come throughout my education journey in Christ University, a place full of joy, blossom and great minds. Christ University equipped me with both knowledge and skills necessary to enter the corporate world through multiple fests and activities. From a personal view, end of semester projects have been most rewarding and contributing to my personal growth and development. As an international student I was offered helping hands from faculty , staff members specifically from the office of International Affairs who have been generous with their time being  dedicated to students.  Sincere gratitude to CHRIST University, for providing me the platform of growth and prosperity to become a better individual. (Mohammad Tareq, Afghanistan)
• I decided to study in India because I admire its cultural richness and diversity and luckily, that is exactly what I found at CHRIST University. I thoroughly enjoy multiculturalism and that every day, I get the chance to meet many people from various backgrounds. Faculty members, classmates, and the welcoming atmosphere at CHRIST university helped me overcome initial language and cultural barriers. Moreover, the high-quality teaching at CHRIST University is excellent and encourages students to think outside of the box. The variety of co-curricular activities provide opportunities to enhance the learning experience and interact with more students. Altogether, I genuinely enjoy the college experience at Christ University. (Paula Ingeburg Pietrowski,Germany)
• They say great leaders are not born but are made, and I strongly feel Christ Deemed to be a university is such a place which creates the perfect ambience and exposure that brings out the best of one's qualities and pushes him/her to their maximum potential. My college gave me the push I needed to stand where I am today running two bootstrapped startups successfully. It taught me how to be a good manager, how to be a good leader and more than that it taught me how to be a generous and conscious human being.(Sathwik Maanthini, Founder:Habbit, Homelyfit)

Final Verdict: Christ University’s reputation goes well beyond its rankings. It is one of the most sought after universities in India.
